About Me

I’m Humayl Fazal, an A-Level student at Dubai College, pursuing Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry. My passion lies in exploring the intersection of engineering, mathematics, and innovation, where curiosity evolves into purposeful problem-solving.

From a young age, I’ve been captivated by how machines work — from the precision of aircraft engines to the resilience of rovers exploring new worlds. What began as curiosity has evolved into hands-on exploration: designing prototypes to improve remote healthcare delivery, delving into aerospace engineering during industry internships, and applying mathematical and physical principles to solve real-world challenges. Each experience has deepened my understanding of how innovation can bridge the gap between theory and impact.

As Head of the Physics & Engineering Society and Co-Founder of the Physics in Motion Club, I organize workshops, mentor peers, and encourage collaborative exploration in science and technology. Participating in the British Mathematics Olympiad, ISMTF Senior Olympiad, and Stanford Math Challenge has strengthened my analytical thinking and resilience under pressure.

Whether I’m presenting projects at Expo 2020, representing my school’s U19 cricket and water polo teams, or developing innovative engineering solutions, I’m driven by the same goal: to create meaningful impact through innovation, collaboration, and perseverance.

Core Values

Innovation

To me, innovation means transforming ideas into tangible impact. Whether designing a rover to deliver supplies to remote areas or leading STEM initiatives at school, I’m driven to create solutions that make a difference. I see every setback as a spark for better ideas because true innovation begins where challenges inspire new ways of thinking.

Resilience

I’ve learned that complex problems rarely have simple answers. Competing in challenging academic tournaments, managing leadership responsibilities, and balancing sports with academics have all taught me the importance of persistence. Resilience, to me, is about staying focused when things get difficult: adapting, learning, and moving forward even when the path isn’t clear.

Leadership

To me, leadership is about inspiring others to grow together. As Head of the Physics & Engineering Society and Co-Founder of Physics in Motion, I’ve led workshops, mentored younger students, and organized the Dubai College Physics Olympiad. I’ve learned that true leadership means creating an environment where every team member feels valued and motivated because success is always a shared achievement.

Leadership Identities

Mentor

Supporting others is at the heart of my leadership style. As Lower School Liaison and Head of the Physics & Engineering Society, I’ve guided younger students through academic and project challenges. Seeing them discover confidence and potential they hadn’t recognized before has been one of the most rewarding parts of my leadership journey.

Collaborator

I thrive when working with others towards a common goal. Through international competitions, society leadership, and team-based engineering projects, I’ve seen how diverse ideas fuel creativity and stronger results. Collaboration, for me, is about listening, building on others’ strengths, and turning collective effort into innovation that none of us could achieve alone.

Problem Solver

I see problems as opportunities to apply logic, creativity, and persistence. From diagnosing engineering issues during internships to tackling complex math challenges, I approach every obstacle with curiosity and determination. I’ve learned that true problem-solving isn’t about finding quick answers, but about exploring, testing, and refining ideas until a better solution emerges.
